Here's your logic in a nutshell: Take 30 minutes to kill every mob plus the boss for one strike. Slightly higher chance of engram drop because of it, but you give no solid evidence that they will in fact drop what you claim. I understand the higher chance rate, but there is no conclusive evidence to back your statement, nor does it guarantee you will end up with more rare/legendary engrams for killing irrelevant enemies. Now here's the counter-argument: You take 30 minutes on a single strike with no guarantees on X amount of engrams, finish the strike and are rewarded with 2 rare engrams or items. Now in that same time, I speed run and can finish almost 3 strikes in that same period of time. If you've been following along, that equals 6 rare (or better) items that I WILL be getting. When I speed run I still have to kill the level 24 boss mobs and there are a ton of enemies... Multiply that by 3 and the answer will show you that you're undoubtably a moron for making a thread to cry about ppl you are matched with because you fail to have 2 friends to play the game with you.. Grow up and think before you speak

    Most people agree with whatever suites the way they want to play regardless if it's right or wrong.

  • Regardless of whether or not that is true, I still believe it is pointless to make a thread telling the people who don't play like you do that they are wrong. There are far better ways of improving the game than whining because Johnny didn't wait for you

    It's got nothing to do with them not waiting for me personally when I'm playing Strikes solo. It has to do with the flaw I'm trying to point out in the way they're doing them and the idea that bypassing enemies and just beating the boss as fast as possible is more effecient for increasing your chances of Legendary/Exotic gear. The end game roll is a chance at getting an engram or two just like all the enemies you avoid are a chance at dropping an engram or two. And skipping the one so you can do the Strike faster is what I'm trying to point out isn't improving your odds because you're not beating it fast enough for it to especially if you're trying to do this solo.

    I'm sorry but you but you are NOT completing three strikes in the time it takes to kill the Mobs that you are actually able to avoid and progress in the Strike. If you're lucky you can complete one and a half of another one in the same amount of time if you Rush and avoid what Mobs you can because the majority of the time spent in every Strike is on the bosses.

  • I've actually timed myself before because I wanted to see what the numbers were.. My fastest was just over 10 minutes.. But honestly it ranges anywhere between 14-20 minutes an that's speed running.. I can't imagine how much time it takes you to complete it killing every... Single... Enemy Lmao have fun with that though buddy! I've said my peace

  • I complete it in that time while killing every enemy. I spawn orbs like crazy so my fireteam just spams their specials like crazy. The same thing happens with the boss (depending on the boss and the type of minions that spawn out). We down bosses super fast because I spawn orbs galore.

  • Aside from your immature remarks, if I suck that's alright, I can accept that. But tell me why out of your last 7 games, between both of your characters, you've finished in the crucible with a positive KDR only once? Explain child. I'll wait.. In the mean time, stay on topic

  • I give good advice because it what the community deserves.. I'm a jerk because I'm tired of people whining as if their way of playing is the way every other person should.. The claims they make are bias and invalid to any perspective unlike theirs.. Then to make make threads about how everyone is wrong
